in afghanistan i can now talk lifestyle and see why it's vis jim brown many being with us. now given this taliban attacks with senior officials did with afghan forces do you think be able to take care of their security on the road once nato troops withdraw. no i mean i think you have to ask the question security for who or for walks when they talk about handing over responsibility for security because by all accounts for example the afghan army as it's called is very much biased towards groups so it starts with the cup from the beginning so the idea that it would be an impartial force or seen to be an impartial force seems to be extremely unlikely and to what extent what they mean by handover is also very questionable i would imagine the nato forces will be hovering in all cases in the background and presumably providing power etc so the. afghan forces will not be very independent i would think i can.
